LEADER OF RED CROSS IS DEAD John Barton Payne. Red Cross Head Since 13-1’ Dies Today Washington, Jan. 2L - (U.PJ ' . John Burton Payin', chairman of the American Red Cross since 19U. died today of I neiimonla. He would have been 80 years old Saturday. , , Judge Payne distinguished himself by a career of public service equat'd hv few men in American I history. Nineteen foreign countries I decorated him for his humanitarian work.. . He became ill oj influenza at his home two weeks ago. He was removed to George Washington Fniversify hospital when his condition became serious a week later. His condition was aggravated by acute appendicitis and he under- ' went an operation for removal of his appendix last Saturday. Yesterday he developed pneumonia and sank rapidly. He died at 1:06 a. m. President Woodrow Wilson appointed Payne chairman of the Red Cross after lie had served in several important government positions during the World War. He was reappointed by President Coolidge. Harding and Roosevelt. Payne was born on a Fruntytown. W. Va., farm on Jan. 26. 1855. His early years were spent in severe hardships. Northern and southern armies surged back and forth across that part of what was then Virginia. The war left the country impoverished and Payne obtained his early education largely by his own efforts and the tutoring of his older, sister, Eugenia. At the age of 18 he apprenticed 'himself to Major Robert F. Mason I and became manager of a general ' store, railroad station, ticket and I freight office, express and post ofj flee at Thoroughfare Gap, Prince i William county, Virginia. I He returned the next year to ' Taylor county. West Virginia, to ■ enter the employ of the clerk of the circuit and county dourts. He studied law and was admitted 4o the bar in 1576. Six years later j he moved to Chicago to take up ’ the practice of law. As tliaira.an of the Red Cross he directed disaster relief during the 1927 Mississippi bood: Florida hurricanes in 1926 and 1928; the West Indies hurricane in 1925; drought relief i n 1939-31 and unemployment | relief prior to organization of fed- | eral relief. He remained in active charge of Red Cross operations up until his illness. His hobbies were art. golf, and a model 1,000-acre farm near Warrenton. Va.. where he maintained a residence. His love for his work was exemplified in his response to congratulations upon his long service by a friend recently. "And I get the highest salary in the world — personal satisfaction,” he replied.
